Scribbles About Movies: Mini Movie Reviews

So this is just a random sampling of movies on demand and on tv and Netflix and things like that.

Not Cool- This is Shane Dawson's movie. I'm a fan of his videos on youtube and of corse I wanted to see this movie. This movie was also a part of a reality competition show called The Chair where two first time directors get to direct a movie based on the same material and one will win. Spoilers: This one won. It wasn't like an amazing movie, but it was better than I thought it would be. It was very over the top, a lot like his Youtube Videos... I laughed out loud at least a couple of times. It was enjoyable.

Chelsea Peretti: One Of The Greats- This was so funny. I love Chelsea Peretti on Brooklyn 99 and she was a writer on Parks and Rec, which i love. So yeah. I really love her and I thought this special was really funny. Chelsea and I hate all the same things, I tweeted her that and she favorited it, so we're BFFS now... and yeah. She is one of the greats!

In A World...- I feel like when I watched this movie I wasn't amazed by it, but when I was thinking about it I was like "I like the Girl-powerness of it all, Lake Bell was funny, Demetri Martin was good, Ken Marino was good... they were all really really good." And I guess there isn't a lot I didn't like about it, but it was a little boring. Lake Bell wrote and directed this movie and I liked that too... but idk I wasn't super interested.

The Lego Movie- I didn't love this movie... I liked it, it was alright but it was scary. Like America is so much like the world at the beginning of the movie. We play the same songs on the radio, the same shows on TV all the time... and yeah. It seemed very real. It was also basically 1984 but with Legos... so that is both cool but kind of dark and scary. I pretty much like this movie so much because the next movie will focus more on Wildstyle and girl characters. I think I'll probably relate to that a bit more and I'll like it a lot. Lol. I love Chris Pratt, Elizabeth Banks, Will Arnett, Charlie Day, Nick Offerman and Alison Brie... so even just them as voice actors makes me happy.


Thats all I have for right now! I may watch a few more movies after finals and review them. There are some good things on Netflix I'm looking at!

Byeee!

It List: May 2017

Can't believe it's the last day of May... this was a great time for TV... so let's get right into it! 1) Master of None- The second season of this show was really really great! I liked the first season... but this season was just wayyy better to me for some reason... I loved that they had episodes about Italy and about New York... I think they did a really great job and I was so impressed with it... I'll have to watch the first season over again and do a Throwback Thursday on that sometime soon... but until then... season 2 was great! 2) Girl Boss- I finally got around to watching Girl Boss this month too... and I loved that show! At first I wasn't sure if I was going to like it or not... then I just couldn't stop watching it and I finished it in 2 days... which I guess is when I finished all the Netflix shows I'm talking about... but still. Girlboss was definitely really good... and I feel like I could watch this one over and over again too. 3) Unbrea...

Uhhhh... Where Have I been?

 So it hasn't been that long- but I did mention that I wanted to keep this more of a daily-ish blog than I have in years past... and my last post was the  4th and today was the 11th. Did I give up on my resolutions already?  No/Sort of... sooo basically I was kind of considering the real start of the new year January 5th... I was very busy with work things up until the 4th... the 4th was the big work event that I had to do... and then after that I could focus on whatever I wanted to focus on... and my blogs were going to be the number 1 thing that I focused on for sure... I might miss a few days... but surely I'd do something for this blog right on the 5th after the big work thing was done... so just leading up to that as long as I post something- everything is good right?  Nope- I realized my room design... needed some refreshing. And then one project turned into several projects and then that took a few days... I think I started on doing stuff on Wednesday of last ...

Weekly Wrap Up 7.30.17

Sunday 7.23.17  Sunday was a really good day… it was kind of a lazy day for me… but my dad pretty much finished most of the painting in my room… he ran out of paint before he could totally finish it up… so he’ll finish that up soon… my mom is going to the paint store tomorrow… so hopefully he can finish it up then.  He also made some really fantastic barbecue pork… it was going to be pulled pork… but the pulling process didn’t really work… I kind of prefer the texture of it sliced instead of pulled…. idk. I like pulled pork… but this sliced pork was really delicious and flavorful and good.  We went for Starbucks and Ice Cream too… which was fun. Starbucks sends a lot of bonus stars offers after 2… so even though we go in the morning- we have to go after 2 because then we’ll get bonus stars, which my dad uses in New York because it’s a little more expensive there.  And then the ice cream… nutella ice cream with crushed oreos and marshmallow…it was del...
